I think this helicopter could clean up against the EC120 and R66 and I think there will be some drop in the price of these on the second hand market . Why would you buy one of these say 5 years old with 500 hrs for the same or even more than a new 505 ?? Even a 5 yr old 206 is still being put up for sale at $1.3 !! Having said that I reckon the new price will go up very quickly as soon as they have hit a certain number on sales . When you look at the spec and performance it is the biggest bargain around .... How much is a new EC120 now or even a 206 L ?
